Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

...and where did all the people that came after Cain and Abel come from? Who was their mother?
Cain and Able weren't Adam and Eves only children. Keep in mind that canonically, Adam lived for over 900 years. That's a lot of time you can use to make more babies.
After the whole regicide incident, they also had Seth. Both him and his exiled brother ended up marrying their sisters. Their descendants did the same. So yeah, it's all incest, top to bottom.
The biblical flood was actually created to wipe out the descendants of Cain, since Noah and his cousins wife were both descendants of Seth
Or, if you're of a more gnostic bent, half fallen angel, half human nephilim who'd been teaching humans forbidden knowledge, such as advanced metal-crafting and makeup.
Still no answer as to where did humans other than Adam and Eve came from.
